"""
The :ref:`Watcher Planner <watcher_planner_definition>` is part of the
:ref:`Watcher Decision Engine <watcher_decision_engine_definition>`.

This module takes the set of :ref:`Actions <action_definition>` generated by a
:ref:`Strategy <strategy_definition>` and builds the design of a workflow which
defines how-to schedule in time those different
:ref:`Actions <action_definition>` and for each
:ref:`Action <action_definition>` what are the prerequisite conditions.

It is important to schedule :ref:`Actions <action_definition>` in time in order
to prevent overload of the :ref:`Cluster <cluster_definition>` while applying
the :ref:`Action Plan <action_plan_definition>`. For example, it is important
not to migrate too many instances at the same time in order to avoid a network
congestion which may decrease the :ref:`SLA <sla_definition>` for
:ref:`Customers <customer_definition>`.

It is also important to schedule :ref:`Actions <action_definition>` in order to
avoid security issues such as denial of service on core OpenStack services.

:ref:`Some default implementations are provided <watcher_planners>`, but it is
possible to :ref:`develop new implementations <implement_planner_plugin>`
which are dynamically loaded by Watcher at launch time.

See :doc:`../architecture` for more details on this component.
